By the time Kirk got in it was way too late,you cant go there,there was no hope at that point.

They were only down ten. There were 7 minutes left on the clock. I don't buy that there wasn't any hope, and think it's a disservice to the facts when we ignore just how good their Defense is.

They are NOT the Browns.

I don't think that happens. I think at this point no one knows. I think at this point everyone is assuming the worst, and it's magnified because they lost.

But let's just assume it's the worst for the sake of argument. Adrian Peterson blew out his knee at FedEx on 24 December 2011 and everyone wrote him off as done. Yet these type of injuries aren't what they were ten years ago and Robert's work ethic is just as intense and serious as Peterson's, so I see no reason why he can't recover completely and be back next season the same as Peterson.

So yes, I'm fine with it.

Thats why I thought there was no hope,to expect cousins to come in and that late and expect him to pull it out would be a miracle,but then you qoute his stats like they meant something,they were meaningless.He had bad snaps,dropped passes,intense pressure.

It is what it is, if he is gone for all next year I think it's better for us to know now instead of him getting hurt in the 1st game next season. Have all offseason to prepare and tailor offense around Kirk.

Although it was apparent RGIII was not "right" even from the start of the game, he gave us our best chance to win. He's still one of the best passers in the game without his legs.

I regret nothing about watching our franchise QB who just turned us around from worst to first in a single season trying to win a playoff game for us. He's a true leader and this knee will heal up and we'll be even better next season when we get half of our defense back from injury and hopefully sure up that safety spot, plus some weapons on offense like Davis and hopefully Helu. After a division title and 10-win season, things are still looking up in our future. We had a ton of what should have been devastating injuries to our success and still won 7 straight to win the division and make the playoffs.

I'm more than satisfied with this season. It has been amazing. I have not been this excited about the Redskins since our 1991 season. Next year, we have the potential to be that '91 team, dominating everyone.

I'm fine with the season ending now. Griffin would try everything he could come up with to get on the field if we were playing next week...and I'm glad he won't have to put that knee under any more stress. Time to rest it and let it heal. Robert, we're not disappointed in yesterday's loss, we all thank you for the amazing rookie season you just had. Lets take care of yourself now and do it all again in September. We want you around for as long as possible.

Thanks for the memories, from this season and for years to come.

HTTR!

I'd kinda slow down there with that opinion. That was one of the best teams in the history of the NFL. The future looks bright, but we still have a lot of holes, that team had no holes.
